摘要： A method of communicating data in a wireless telecommunications system between plural base stations and plural terminal devices using plural Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex, OFDM, sub-carriers spanning a first frequency bandwidth. The method includes: communicating data between a first base station and a first terminal device using a first OFDM sub-carrier group distributed across the first frequency bandwidth, communicating data between a second base station, geographically separated from the first base station, and a second terminal device using a second OFDM sub-carrier group distributed across a second frequency bandwidth, the second frequency bandwidth being smaller than and within the first frequency bandwidth; and communicating control-plane data between the first base station and the first terminal device using a combination of the first and second groups of the OFDM sub-carriers. Guard regions may be provided in the frequency domain between frequencies of transmissions associated with the first and second base stations.

摘要： A base station communicating data to/from plural mobile terminals over plural OFDM sub-carriers within a coverage area. The base station allocates transmission resources provided by a first group of the plural OFDM sub-carriers within a first frequency band to mobile terminals of a first type and allocates transmission resources provided by a second group of the plural OFDM sub-carriers within a second frequency band to terminals of a second type, the second group being smaller than the first group and the second frequency band selected from within the first frequency band. The base station transmits control information including resource allocation information for terminals of the first type over a first bandwidth corresponding to the combined first and second groups of OFDM sub-carriers and transmits control information including resource allocation information for terminals of the second type over a second bandwidth corresponding to the second group of OFDM sub-carriers.

摘要： A base station receiving uplink data transmitted from mobile terminals of first type and mobile terminals of second type over a radio interface using plural sub-carriers. The mobile terminals of first type transmit uplink data on a first group of the sub-carriers over a first bandwidth and the mobile terminals of second type transmit uplink data on a second group of the sub-carriers within the first group of sub-carriers over a second bandwidth that is smaller than the first bandwidth. The base station is configured to grant uplink radio resources in response to random access request messages transmitted by mobile terminals of first type transmitted on a first random access channel and to grant uplink radio resources in response to random access request messages transmitted by mobile terminals of second type transmitted on a second random access channel, which are transmitted on sub-carriers within the second group of sub-carriers.
